[edit] Similar Games

This is a list of similar games found on the web. And the things they do better than supertux (so we can learn from them ;-)

[edit] Tux Strikes Back

This is a level set for SuperTux 0.1.3. It comes with its own story, levels and world map. Features as quoted from the authors website:

  • explore 18 levels plus a secret bonus level
  • journey through many different locations
  • discover shortcuts and a hidden bonus room
  • fight Nolok's army in a challenging showdown

[edit] Alex the Allegator

Jump and Run featuring Alex the Allegator... The game comes in a gameboy-style graphics (4 grey tones, 320x200 or so). Strong points for this game:

  • It tells a story (some cutscenes with music, a bit of text). This really adds to the general atmosphere of the game.
  • The allegator rolling is a unique special idea which brings some cool elements into the game
  • You can play all levels again trying to capture all stars/cherries
  • Nice dynamic music in the background (changing when you die, when the level starts, ...)
  • 2 bosses, (1 boss after 5 normal levels) level bring new challenges

[edit] Secret Maryo Chronicles

Feels, looks and plays exactly like Super Mario World. Let's hope for them they won't get at nintendos radar... Good things in this game:

  • Accelerating and slowing down is slower than in supertux, making the levels more challenging (this is a good thing IMO)
  • Some of the blending effects between the levels are nice
  • Their levels are not based on a traditional tile grid, but you can place arbitrary (rectangular) objects in the levels

[edit] BoboBot

A game similar in spirit to megaman. Although the engine seems limited in a first glance (no scrolling, saving, very small resolution...) the game makes lots of fun because it contains lots of cool ideas and diversitities. You see a new enemy, object or graphics every 2 or 3 screens which makes the game interesting.

[edit] CloneKeen

A Clone of Commander Keen under the GPL.

[edit] MoleInvasion

An open source jump and run game. Seems to be heavily inspired by supertux and pingus.

[edit] Cave Story/Doukutsu

Brilliant freeware jump and shoot. Featuring very polished music, story, athmosphere. Also shows how good jump and run physics should look like... A linux version can be found at [1]
